Time has come for Girls Scouts' treasures

A time capsule buried in 1987 by Girl Scouts in Brea was opened Sunday, giving current Scouts a look at life 25 years ago – and a few giggles.

Former Scouts who created the time capsule – now women, some now moms with their own Scouts – could not remember what they left inside. They were middle-schoolers then, and 25 years seemed like an impossibly long time.

“I think they thought they'd be in space,” said Kathie Cademartori, the troop leader when the girls created the time capsule.
